The phrase "area of adhesion" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to biology, materials science, or engineering, where it refers to a specific region where two surfaces or substances stick together.
Example: "The area of adhesion between the two materials was critical for ensuring the strength of the bond."
Alternatives: "zone of attachment" or "region of bonding".
All the cellulose-derived gels showed efficacy in reducing the area of adhesion formation in a rabbit sidewall defect-bowel abrasion model.
Cells on the PNS showed a smaller area of adhesion to the surface.
Both were upregulated in 3-D cultured cells versus cells on 2-D patterns when surface area of adhesion and rigidity were held constant.
A significant reduction of the area of adhesion was assessed in both trial groups (6%: p = 0.002; 9%: p = 0.001) compared to the control group.
On rigid substrates (Young's Modulus = 1 MPa), cytoskeleton assembly within single fibroblast cells occurred in 3-D microwells of circular, rectangular, square, and triangular shapes with 2-D projected surface areas (microwell bottom surface area) and total surface areas of adhesion (microwell bottom plus wall surface area) that inhibited stress fiber assembly in 2-D.
where R is the radius of the sphere, K is the reduced modulus of two materials with E1 and E2 the respective Young's moduli, and ν1 and ν2 the respective Poisson's ratios, z0 is the interatomic equilibrium distance (=0.2 nm), γ is the interfacial energy per unit area (work of adhesion).
(B ) Quantification of the areas of individual focal adhesions (fold change in comparison to the initial area of the adhesion) located at the tips of dorsal stress fibers and maturing ventral stress fibers.
3D micropatterning techniques have been used to control the area of cell adhesion and neurite projection by etching out collagen gel using an infrared laser beam (Odawara et al., 2013).
From our model, we estimate the area per DNA in the binding sites between vesicles and also the total area of the adhesion plaques.
When the area of low adhesion is a strip, the width of the strip controls the buckle morphology: smooth Euler buckles for narrow strips, asymmetric telephone cord buckles for wider strips, and symmetric varicose buckles under a very limited range of conditions.
In TB granuloma, OCT reveals an area of localized adhesion between the choriocapillaris-RPE layer and overlying the neurosensory retina.
